We report a case of a large, ulcerating proliferating trichilemmal cyst in a 76-year-old woman, with clinical, radiological, macroscopic, and microscopic correlation. The outbreak of the Coronavirus pandemic delayed her treatment. We review the literature on proliferating trichilemmal cysts, which are relatively rare tumors, which, generally, are considered benign. However, we found a high rate of malign cases, which stresses the importance of rapid surgical excision and histological diagnosis. Even though our proband had delayed treatment, the tumor did not transform into a malignant form.
我们报告了一例76岁女性的巨大溃疡性增殖性外毛根鞘囊肿病例,并进行了临床、放射学、大体和显微镜检查的相关性分析。冠状病毒大流行的爆发延误了她的治疗。我们回顾了关于增殖性外毛根鞘囊肿的文献,这种囊肿是相对罕见的肿瘤,通常被认为是良性的。然而,我们发现恶性病例的比例很高,这凸显了快速手术切除和组织学诊断的重要性。尽管我们的先证者治疗有所延迟,但肿瘤并未转变为恶性形式。
